Israel Aircraft Industries was excluded from the Airbus 380 project
because of a political decision of the goverment of Israel to buy only
Boeing planes by El Al.


What brand of cheese do you prefer to go with that whine? Hey, turn
down the billions in US dollars your nation receives each year from
the US taxpayers, then you can come back and whine about losing out on
this contract as much as you want (and one wonders how much of the
antagonism was also due to European dissatisfaction with the actions
of the Israeli government over the past few years...?).


Israeli pilots were making jokes about nuking Paris not so many weeks ago.
I think AI has made an enemy.

If they have nukes, it's much thanks to France ...

So you acknowledge that "aid" to Israel is nothing but a quid pro quo.

Exactly what "price" are you talking about?

What would the benefits of being included in the Airbus 380 project
have been and would they have outweighed the costs?

Never heard the story anywhere! Your pedaling bull****.

France has been an enemy of Israel since the 1970s when the French
government sold Israel to the Arabs for a few litres of oil (paid good
(Mirages, ships, etc.) not delivered, orders suddenly cancelled, etc.).
Israel discovered decades ago that Europeans cannot be trusted, and the

US
can (or at least is more trustworthy than Europe) so they deal with the

US
not Europe.


Ever hear the story where Israel relabelled Brazilian (?) oranges and

goods
produced in the illegally occupied territories as Israeli produce in order
to defraud Europe?

There is a group of people who cannot be trusted, and it isn't the
Europeans.

LOL! Not hardly. You need to retake that course in logic--the salient
points apparently did not stick with you. I am merely pointing out
that whining about your economic/military dependency upon the US and
any negative impacts can easily be rendered moot by declaring you
won't accept further US aid (like *that* will ever happen).

American defense contractors would not be too happy if that were to
happen.

why would they be upset, we just got done with a war, and we would use
the money and that we would give them for their military to rearm
ours.

we did".

wouldn't you think, the way things are, a better plan would to relabel
israeli stuff as brazilian to sell it in europe?
